In Hoodoo and related folk traditions, alum is the classic curio for stopping gossip, quieting slander, and souring a troublesome tongue, kept in the home to hush household quarrels, carried when loose talk follows you, and worked into jar and packet workings aimed at a specific wagging mouth. Some traditions also count it among the protective minerals kept at thresholds against ill intent, the evil-eye customs of the Mediterranean among them. The mineral does no silencing by itself; it carries one of folk magic's most vivid metaphors while your working supplies the intent, which is how curios have always honestly operated.How To Use This Alum Keep a chunk in a dish where household peace is wanted, the old quiet-home custom. Add a piece to jar workings aimed at stopping gossip or slander. Carry a small chunk wrapped in cloth when loose talk follows you. Store it dry and sealed; alum slowly dissolves in moisture, and this jar stays out of the bathroom and kitchen alike. Pairs Well With Plastic Jar with Cap, 1 oz: portions a working's worth of chunks. Black Velveteen Bag: the carry cloth for a pocket piece. Pink Love Rice, 1 oz: a fellow curio of the honest conjure shelf.
